Man what an awful tiebreak both ways. Nadal is gonna eat up either of these guys =P

 

[Smellycat]

Hilarious tie break lol

Federer wins it obviously.

 

[LuuKyK]

Why cant Paire serve well when its needed? Wtf... -_-

Tomorrow is a great opportunity for Serena to quiet the critics who believe Azarenka is playing better tennis than Serena at this time.

People believe that? Lol

 

[John Dunbar]

Although Federer will probably get murdered tomorrow, at least we finally have another classy Fededer-Nadal final, instead of a Djokovic-Murray mugfest. Future of tennis is looking bleak, so we need to savour these last precious moments in the sun.

 

[Smellycat]

Federer!!! Please win tomorrow. BELIEVE

 

[AceOcelot]

Mah boi.

 

[LuuKyK]

Benoit... :/ Oh well, it was a good match. Somehow. I expect an easy win for Nadull tomorrow though.

Uhm... I have never seen someone claim Azarenka is better than Serena. Mainly because she obviously isnt.

 

[Sax Russel]

After going through (even if they were reasonably comfortable wins) two players of a type that tends to give him trouble (hard hitters), Fed's reward is a final on clay against Nadal. I wonder if he's starting to think "I'm getting too old for this shit" yet =P

More importantly, Serena needs to validate her #1 ranking by winning Rome and Madrid.

 

[Diprosalic]

i ain't watching another nadal beatdown. no way.

 

[MIMIC]

Federer will achieve turkey status when Nadal beats him for the 20th time tomorrow

Epic differential

 

[88random]

Nostalgic final. I'm a Roger fan, but I like when he plays with Nadal, especially in the final and I wouldn't want any other opponent. I'm probably masochist, lol.
I believe in you Roger, c'mon!

btw, Roger is doing an AMA on reddit on Friday, at 1:30 P.M. EST.

Just tuned in, Azarenka is getting a hell of a beating.

true, Federer might be the last 'classic' tennis player left in the top 10

 

[Peru]

41 winners, 19 unforced - clay tennis Silliams style.

Tennis was fine before Federer and will be fine long after he's gone.

 

[leng jai]

It's going to be raining flat backhand winners from Rogi Featherer today. I can feel it.

 

[szaromir]

Why would they make clay mug Becker toss the coin instead of some kid who would feel so special on such an occasion?

 

[Sax Russel]

It's going to be raining terrible short backhand slices from Rogi Featherer today. I can feel it.

Fixed -_-

 

[szaromir]

Bagel avoided! Woo! Go Roger!

 

[Niraj]

Bagel avoided! Woo! Go Roger!

Lol. Our hero!

 

[Deadman]

It's on now but sky's program doesn't start for another 40 minutes. What a joke.

 

[Coldnoodle]

I can't wait to see Nadal go to Federer's backhand all day...ughhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[darkwing]

Nadal is manhandling Fed again

 

[Niraj]

K set over

 

[MIMIC]

And there's the break.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Rafa breaks, game over.

 

[Sax Russel]

Nadal is manhandling Fed again

Fed should get a restraining order

 

[darkwing]

hate to see matches like this over this early

poor Fed :|

 

[szaromir]

Federror :'(

 

[Niraj]

This is gonna be a brutal set. Like 6-2 or 6-1

 

[Coldnoodle]

Shankerer, Declinerer, Federror all present.

 

[darkwing]

This is gonna be a brutal set. Like 6-2 or 6-1

don't see Federer winning another game in this set

 

[Sax Russel]

Worry not hungry viewers, we might get a breadstick out of it!

 

[tycoonheart]

These Rafa Fed matches aren't even fun anymore.

 

[leng jai]

The haircut is really not helping.

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Anyone ever play with a dislocated shoulder? I haven't played tennis in quite a long time - I would love to get back into it but I really don't know what risks I would be taking.

I know I will have a weak serve lol but I'm hoping that as long as I don't over exert my arm it will be in a stable position the entire time.

If anyone else has dislocated their shoulder but plays let me know!

 

[darkwing]

this might be the shortest final in history

 

[John Dunbar]

just tuned in. fuck.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Fed looks so old

 

[darkwing]

well he is 31

plus he has to run around chasing those Nadal groundstrokes

 

[Niraj]

These Rafa Fed matches aren't even fun anymore.

I don't even know what the last entertaining one was. Maybe 2011 French? Most of them are just beatdowns either way these days

 

[MIMIC]

I wanna see a bagel in the 2nd set

 

[darkwing]

I wanna see a bagel in the 2nd set

Nadal can't be that cruel, can he? :|

 

[szaromir]

Well, that was quick.

 

[Niraj]

Really poor effort

Those serving statistics, christ

 

[Coldnoodle]

Nadal can't be that cruel, can he? :|

No, but Mimic is.

 

[Sax Russel]

Look at it this way guys, at least Djokovic isn't winning it =D
